'Beetlebum' top 20? What a pleasant surprise. Hope Oasis have made the top 5 ^_^

Breathe only (=) #28 :( But as I said earlier I did expect it to be fairly low. Great to see No Doubt not top 20, horrible song. Firestarter beat it :D

Surprised at Don't Speak and Bohemian Rhapsody not top 20! By far the most pleasant surprise for me is that ATB's managed to get into the top 20 :D I always thought that it was a song that I over obsessed about and that nobody else actually thought much of it anymore, but that's clearly not the case - it's not exactly 'typical BJ fare' but its done very well indeed! Nice to see the two best Spice's tracks and Cher in there too :wub:

Wot a flop from All Saints :( Evidently it's clear this site is full of SPICE GIRLS loons.

 

Surprised Meat Loaf is so high :blink: I was shocked it even made the final tbh, let alone coming in the top half (just!)

 

I was the only one to vote for The Clash. Tragically low places for Adamski, Run-DMC (though they didn't make my votes), Fugees, Babylon Zoo, Olive & Oasis, too!

 

I really have no idea who is going to win this. From the votes it didn't seem like any song was getting loads of high points, so I'd guess it's pretty close at the top, and some of the lower votes have been quite instrumental in deciding the winner.

 

Also, great to see Coolio, White Town and Blur top 20 especially!!

You have Snap as being in the top 20, but they were at number 48 :s

 

Shakespear's sister to win!

Didn't expect Blondie to be in the Top20

I think that Snap have two songs in the top 50. 'The Power' was at 48, but 'Rhythm Is A Dancer' is still to come if I recall rightly. :)

"Brimful of Asha" deserves to be a lot higher, as Breathe, Bohemian Rhapsody and Some Might Say :(

 

I must say i'm pleased wit most songs that are in the Top 20! Oasis or White Town for #1 (but i guess Spice Girls or Madonna will win)

Shocked 'Never Ever' was so low. A really good pop song, I didn't vote for it but it wasn't far off.

 

Pleased 'Brimful of Asha' got so high but a shame it couldn't go top 20. Pleased to see Queen not make the top 20, best song ever my arse!

U2 - The Fly is the best number 1 of the 90s. Superior to most songs ever recorded.

Eiffel, Queen and Oasis out :( although Queen did pretty well considering all the -2's they were given, plus they would've actually done really well without them :o

 

great to see Manics and the other Oasis song still to come- could this probably be the first countdown ever in Buzzjack history that a female doesn't win? :o *crosses fingers*

There are more males than females in the top 20 so there is a chance of it happening

20 - White Town "Your Woman" (1997) (+56)

 

One hit wonder band White Town just make the top 20 with a song that would thirteen years later be sampled by grime artist Wiley and singer Emeli Sande for "Never Be Your Woman" which did poor compared to this

 

 

 

Wow, I completely missed the first 30!

 

I must say that you're doing a great job with this, I've been impressed by how you've managed to stick to running it so efficiently.

 

As for the results so far, Cornershop is just great so a shame it missed the top 20 - although if you'd have said it would finish at #21 before we started then I'd probably have settled for it. Also quite impressed that Enigma faired so well.

 

However I am mostly chuffed by White Town, KLF, Shakespears Sisters and Blur all making the top 20, excellent taste BJers.

Oh, I appear to have cursed White Town. That's my favourite in the whole chart. :wub:

This is due to this week being the last week of term for me, so a lack of homework and lots of free time. I finish school at 12.30 tomorrow so 10 - 1 could possibly be revealed just after that. I'm not revealing it in the morning as I want it to be exciting

19 - Blondie "Maria" (1999) (+57)

 

After a number of years off, 80s group Blondie make a massive comeback with this entering straight at number one.

 

 

18 - The Prodigy "Firestarter" (1996) (+59)

 

The first number one scored by The Prodigy, it held the position for three weeks.
